Container Exchange Recycling Program
Sea World Cruises participates in the Containers for Change container recycling program. Since 2021, more than 20,000 eligible containers have been diverted from landfill and given a new life as new drink containers, road base, food trays, building materials and more.
Commercial Food Waste Recycling Program
In the hospitality industry, a staggering 50% of waste comes from food disposal. Taking a proactive stance, we’ve been actively engaged in the City of Gold Coast’s Commercial Food Waste Recycling Program since 2021.
Through this initiative, Sea World Cruises is redirecting organic food waste away from overburdened landfills. Instead, our kitchen waste undergoes a transformative journey, being recycled into nutrient-rich compost. This compost, in turn, becomes a valuable resource, nurturing the greenery of our local parks and gardens.
